You could do either, it's personal preference, I'd personally go with the 177 cause the ski is really soft and the extra length will help prevent washing out, but you could ride the 166 if you really want, you'll just suffer when actually skiing (and remember, you have to get from feature to feature).

it all depends on you as a skier. some people like longer skis cause they're more stable, have a smoother swing rate, and in my opinion are way more gangrelated. Although you may not be comfortable on such a long ski. 177 is a big jump from 166. If you feel like the skis will overpower you get the smaller ones, if you feel up to it get the bigger ones.

because pretty much the same thread was up two days ago and it was also in ski gabber.. just thought it was kinda funny. . but didn't mean for it to come off as mean! Anyways i have 166 afterbangs and im 5'7 right around your same weight. but it all depends how short or long you like your skis..
